11/25 - Happy Thanksgiving!

Before we start eating our Thanksgiving feast, we go around the table and say one thing for which we're thankful.  Lil' Guy said, "I'm thankful to have wonderful moms and a nice sister."  Awwww.

I am thankful for good friends and family, the (new) roof over our heads, and that we have plenty of food on the table.  I'm also thankful to have a little helper in the kitchen!  Here's Lil' Gal, basting the tofurkey.

11/24 - Littlest Rabbit's hat trick

Some magicians pull a rabbit OUT of a hat. Mommy put a rabbit IN a hat. Ta da!

Ed's kids came to the office today, and his daughter made a little nest for Littlest Rabbit with my putty. Doesn't she look cozy?

11/23 - Zebra sees someone that says "Ho ho ho!"

Zebra found a stripey-tailed friend in the window of the art store.  We waved hello, and then went in to work.

Guess who we saw at the food court today?  I guess even Santa gets hungry.  He left in a black limo driven by an elf in a Santa hat!

11/22 - Pony finds fall leaves and a big rain cloud

It sure looks a lot like Fall around here...

Pony was chosen specially when I requested a toy brave enough to handle today's onslaught of meetings. Lots of meetings require lots of notebooks and note-taking.  Pony is using the notebooks as stairs. Go, Pony, go!

11/19 - Santa Bear and the great Beanie Baby contest

Santa Bear likes to help.  Look at all the donations for the Food Bank!  Ho ho ho!

This gumball machine is having a contest.  The prizes are little stuffed animals. We did not win, but we did get to have lunch with David.  That's a nice prize!

Shrek and a little tasty friend were on the side of a bus.

11/18 - Meena-Cakes!

Meena gives a thumbs-up to this odd machine.  It looked like a robot grasshopper to me, but it must be for some kind of construction work. Could it be a sleeping cherry picker, all folded up?

The video doesn't work for us at the office, but the photo of the real robot grasshopper is cute!  http://www.geekalerts.com/robot-grasshopper-video/ (Thanks, David!)

They were giving out free snack samples in the cafeteria today in these little wrappers.  (Yes, I had two.)  Meena pretended he was a cupcake!

11/17 - Blue Bear bites brussels and butternut

Blue Bear liked the BART ride today.  I did too -- earlier delays meant lots of free seats!

They had veggie risotto at the cafeteria today.  Blue Bear is only eating the things that start with the letter B.  BITE!

11/16 - Ostrich likes steam

She found this picture of the steam engine we saw at the KSW Roll Out, and wanted to go for a ride.  We'll have to bring her next time.

Ostrich is pretty like a flower... But she smells like a bird!

We saw a really weird fruit at the sandwich shop today!  It looks like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddha's_hand.  They told us it tastes like lemon, but we didn't try it.

11/15 - Breakfast bar bugs

Cricket and Grasshopper think blueberry breakfast bars sound yummy!  Me too.  What did you guys have for breakfast today?

The bugs are excited about all the nice green things to eat for lunch. I wish we had time to eat ouside in the sun!

11/12 - Torta wants to fly

If caterpillars can grow wings and fly, why not spiders?  Why not us?

Bob the Pirate/Builder left his pirate accessories at my desk, but came back for them later on. He's being a pirate at Robert's desk now.  (We take turns playing with him -- Bob, not Robert.)

Torta had fun playing pirate until the parrot got tangled up in her web.  Squawk!!
